It's been another week full of fun here on the site so let's get into it:

COMMUNITY EVENTS
USF Inauguration Event
Since our TWO Presidents have taken office, Spyro our head of the USF Elections, requested that there be a Presidential Event for the USF. So last night some of us went online and had that Event. We played like one competitive game and the rest was Flood where all I did was just stand around but the talks and stuff were fun. I was glad to be interacting with the community on a higher level than just typing here.
Participants:
onsokumaru, Edward Kenway, Connor Kenway, Erebus, Beckoningzebra1, Bnus, Spyro, Sikslik7, Vitamin PWN, Hippie, and Myself

Steve Downes Confirms Halo 2: Anniversary
It's exactly what the Halo Community has wished for but now that it's a very likely possibility, is it something we all want? Will it be what we all dreamed about or will it be overkill for the game that revolutionized competitive gameplay and practically kick started Xbox Live? Adam gives you the story and quote from the Master Chief himself, Steve Downes.
Titanfall Beta Open to Xbox One and PC Users
As I'm sure most of you know, the Titanfall Beta went public on Sunday, February 16th. I've heard extremely good things about this game but I don't have an Xbox One to play it on myself and I doubt my PC will be able to handle it lol. I believe it's still open and definitely not something you want to miss. Even if you're not sure about getting the game this could be your chance to solidify your decision on whether it's something you want or not. Edward Kenway brings you the news.

HOT TOPIC
It should come as no surprise that this week's Hot Topic is the best mystery fiction writing going on on the site right now. It's The Sniper of 343i.org by JL. I die, he dies, she might die, some more people are definitely gonna die. But I think we get saved! You'll have to read to find out! The story is still in progress but a prologue and 3 chapters are already up and well worth reading. JL has quite the skill in writing.

This new year is bringing on a lot of inaugural events! Click above to read each Forum Address. The green is Vitaguy's (Vitaguy ) and the darker red, brickish color is bequeathingstripedhorse1's.
